Again this is my neighbors, jealous here, his stove is almost new. Does
not
use it during summer, way to hot. Nice item.

Why do you consider it to be a "nice item". I'm asking from the point of
view of a rural housewife who's installed 3 woodburning cookers in 3 houses
over 30 years and who looks for particular things when I buy and install
them (in other words, this is a test of your knowledge of wood burning
stoves :-)))))

I use propane for heat and cooking. If propane doubles or triples again
over the next few years, I may have to do without some things I like. I do
have some wooded areas on my land. Even if I got a geothermal heating
system, I will still want something to cook with if propane went sky high.
So a wood cooking stove would be a nice item to have that could also heat
the home.

If your thinking from a different perspective. It has a hot water resevor
with a side spigot. The bun warmer on top is great for sourdough breads.
Sourdough starters need mid to upper 70 degrees for bread to rise. I do not
keep my home that warm during winter, about 69 max. So I only make
sourdoughs during summer. Winter is better for tempering chocolate thou. So
for now I dream. Consumerism is bad thing

The drawback wood is the extra work. As I get older it gets harder.
